Bitcoin ETFs See $170M in Outflows as the Market Downturn Continues
Spot On Chain mentioned that the enormous outflows of $170M from Bitcoin ETFs denote a continuous downward trend. Particularly, Fidelity ($FBTC) dominated the Bitcoin ETFs in terms of outflows. The ETF recorded a net outflow of nearly $85M. Following that, Grayscale ($GBTC) saw the withdrawals of almost $52.9M. Subsequently, Bitwise ($BITB) recorded $14.3M in outflows. ARK 21Shares ($ARKB) and Grayscale Mini ($BTC) recorded $7.2M and $5.5M in outflows. Valkyrie ($BRRR) beheld the least outflows of $4.6M.
These outflows mark the 2nd consecutive day when no inflows have taken place at all in the case of $BTC ETFs. The cumulative outflow for $BTC ETFs during the entire week has now reached a large $706M spot. This continuous trend of withdrawals has led to several apprehensions regarding the short-term sentiment. Hence, the investments in US Bitcoin ETFs are declining to a great extent.
Ethereum ETFs Witness Another $6M Leaving the Market Amid a Shift in Market Sentiment
Ethereum ETFs additionally experienced notable withdrawals of $6M, although smaller in comparison with Bitcoin ETFs. The only $ETH ETF going through an outflow on September 6 was Grayscale (ETHE). The exchange-traded fund recorded a loss of 10.7M in total. This outflow overwhelmed the inflows seen by BlackRock (ETHA). The only $ETH ETFs witnessing an inflow added $4.7M. Additionally, the weekly outflows of $ETH ETFs have reached $91.1M.
The continuous ETF outflows of Ethereum and Bitcoin during this week signify a wider market retreat, especially in the case of the US ETF industry. Nonetheless, the market onlookers have high hopes for future developments. According to analysts, this downturn could also denote a consolidation period while investors are reevaluating the portfolios thereof. Irrespective of the provisional ETF downturn, both $ETH and $BTC have an optimistic long-term outlook.
